Using 2003 Web Edition.

Have applied Enterprise Member Server baseline security, now DNS running on
that machine will not resolve internet domain names. I have to stop and
restart the service in order for it to begin working. On boot up none of the
root hints show up in cache. Once I stop and restart the service, they show
up.

This was happening on both of my external dns servers. I rebuilt one without
the baseline security and it is working fine.

Any ideas on a specific cause?

thanks

Nothing should show up in the cache until a query is made to the DNS server,
but the root hints should show on the Root Hints tab.
 
Yes, I mis-stated that. First I make an unsuccessful attempt to hit a
website. Once I stop and start the service everything works normally.
